Please know that our staff are working as quickly and diligently as possible to support our patients, while continuing to provide the high level of care and service you expect from Harvest Tides Family Practice.

Due to a higher-than-usual volume of calls, phone wait times are currently longer than normal. We truly appreciate your understanding during this time.

Our hearts (and stomachs!) are so full 💙

We want to send a huge, heartfelt thank you to our wonderful patients for the incredible outpouring of treats, baking, and goodies you’ve brought in for our staff and providers. Your kindness and thoughtfulness truly mean more than we can say, and it never goes unnoticed. We are so grateful for the trust you place in us and for the way you continually show up with such generosity.

We’d also like to give a special thank you to our amazing neighbours at the Respiratory Therapy Specialists, who so kindly treated our entire team to lunch yesterday. It was such a thoughtful gesture and a perfect reminder of how lucky we are to work alongside such supportive community partners.

Thank you all for making our days brighter, we are so grateful for each and every one of you! 💙✨
